It's been over 20 years and he still looks at her like that.

Did anyone else notice this dude in the lone gunmen’s picture in their house? I was rewatching and thought it was super weird (he’s in the upper right hand corner iff you can’t find him)

I would probably enjoy this song more as being part of an X-Files episode, especially a scene as cool as that with Mulder and Scully being utter bad asses, but California Sun?  Why does this smell like it has CC’s fingerprints all over it! haha

Is it just me, or is this current season of the X Files deliberately attempting to trigger memories of certain original-run episodes? In other words, to me at any rate:

William in 11x01 evokes Emily in 5x07.

Langley in 11x02 evokes Esther in 5x11.

The Poundstone twins in 11x03 evoke Modell and Bowman in 5x08.

This isn’t a complaint, by any means, it’s more wondering whether this is all intentional and the similarities exist for a specific reason. Maybe it’s just me, but the parallels in the stories have been to clear to ignore, and it makes me wonder if we’re seeing real life or if we’re stuck in a vision or dream or some other altered reality.

Is it possible that Scully did not actually wake up in 11x01? Is there something to the fact that so far it’s been S5 episodes that have been the first to come to mind in each instance? Or is it possible that I’ve been obsessing over the X-Files for 24 plus years now and I’ve reach Mulder levels of conspiracy theories?
